I’ve been playing with the AI handwriting recognition on the Boox tablet, and while it’s pretty incredible I cannot get it to understand the word ā€œbrownā€ in cursive, at least when using my low-quality rendition of D’Nealian (which I actually learned in grade school!). It just thinks it’s a drawing and doesn’t try to interpret it.

I learned this of course while experimenting with ā€œThe quick brown foxā€¦ā€. I’m not sure what the problem is; I think it’s the b-r ligature. I’ve tried a number of variations and they’ve got to be really out there to get understood. It’s surprising since the handwriting recognition is otherwise so solid, whether block print, cursive, or scrawl.
